01 · Client Challenge

What needed to be solved

The facility required a robust, high capacity electrical infrastructure built from scratch to power an intensive, commercial-grade kitchen operation. The client faced critical challenges, including high inductive loads from 3-phase motors, severe thermal build up requiring high-capacity exhaust systems, potential phase imbalances, and strict safety hazards inherent to high moisture, high-heat cooking environments.

02 · Solution Delivered

How Humelix responded

The HUMELIX LIMITED engineering team executed a complete, top-to-bottom industrial electrical installation. We engineered and installed a customized 100A 3-Phase Correction & Main Distribution Panel equipped with high-rupturing-capacity Molded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs). The team routed armored and heavy duty flame retardant cabling using surface trunking, raceways, and wall-mounted isolation units. We powered and integrated all 3-phase commercial baking ovens, industrial washing machinery, specialized kitchen units, and an efficient exhaust fan network designed for continuous smoke and heat extraction.

03 · Result / Outcome

The operational result

Delivered a high-performance, fully balanced, and ultra safe electrical infrastructure. The installation effectively prevents voltage drop and line imbalance under full operational capacity, ensuring that heavy duty 3-phase motors and heating elements run smoothly with zero nuisance tripping or thermal overheating.

Safety Approach

How the site was controlled

Strict Compliance: Adhered strictly to IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) for commercial and wet environments.
​On-Site Safety: Enforced full PPE usage across the engineering team throughout civil trunking, ladder work, and heavy panel termination.
​Rigorous Testing: Executed mandatory pre-energization testing including Earth Loop Impedance checks, Continuity testing, Phase Rotation verification, and Insulation Resistance (M\Omega) testing across all 3-phase circuits.

Technical reviewSite requirements, service scope and practical constraints are reviewed before recommendations.
Safe deliveryWork is aligned with safety controls, clean execution and client-site protection.
Handover supportCompleted work is closed with guidance, next steps and aftercare awareness.
Extended Outcome

Operational result

Completed full load-balancing across all three phases (R, Y, B) to maximize energy efficiency and prevent neutral line overload. Provided comprehensive circuit labeling, single-line diagrams (SLD) on the panel cover, and safety operating guidelines for kitchen management staff.
